work, play, but still dull
I made the end-of-month deadline at work with most of today to spare (and got my 90-day review... imagine, I've been at this new job 90 days already... I simply must be having fun cuz time sure did fly by... anyway, all's good on the evaluation, which means, of course, that I still have the best boss in the world)... I continue to get many thanks and much positive feedback from almost everyone at the place, which only goes to show that Lincoln just might have been wrong after all...
yeah, think about it...
and I hung out relaxing in the evenings (ok, I did a little web wandering {myspace is apparently addictive as I spent last night watching all of the episodes of Heroes on the Sci-Fi channel while inviting hundreds of Zoes to be my friend over there} and thanks to Moo I found myself inspired to make some some creative play time {the babbler and heart send many thanks} and you dear people who read here and comment)...
YAY YOU!
I also invited two musically oriented geniuses with all sorts of musical connections to The Social Orlando and one already said he wanted to participate so it's about time I got to inviting him and the other belongs there too and who knows, maybe the if you build it, they will come philosophy will actually work there someday...
and somehow, the babbling that will eventually become btc continues and how's this (cuz it matters to a few of us), I promise to do my best to get btc uploaded and up to date for the New Year (I'm asking Santa for help)...
tomorrow night Precious debuts as Technical Director for a one act play at her school... so I won't be going to one of the music events of the season, the No Snow Show, cuz Precious is more important...
tomorrow night is also the dealine for college applications and unfortunately, as is her habit, Precious is trying to get it done at the last minute and rationalizing how it's not her fault that she might miss the deadline and not have the best chance at the college of her choice...
of course the best excuse in the world is that she is 100% focused on the show (as she should be the day of the show) and does not want to think about or deal with anything else... unfortunately, the worst case scenario is she does not get into the college of her choice, does not get the scholarship early applicants get, and it cost $3500 more than it should at the second college on her list...
I hope she figures out a way to change her last minute habit before she loses out on the opportunity of a life time or something really personally meaningful that she can not get back...
we're still all excited about tomorrow night though J
Rasputin is receiving more love letters from the other side of the world... that's his thing in recent years, vsiting the Ukraine and corresponding with women there through interpreter relationship sites... he's gone over there twice in the past three years and is looking to do it again, maybe this summer (but the girls want a trip to Europe this summer as a graduation present and then there's the possible unplanned college costs (above) and there won't be enough money for all of it (and speaking of money, remind me to remind him that if he paid me back I could buy a new computer... yeah, what about me?... excuse me whilst I laugh myself silly, though maybe you have to live here to really grasp why)...
and his new job (which is really his old job, revisited) is going as well as it can go... I think he's getting tired of the work and may be looking for a career change, but such moves take time, especially when big expenses are coming up in 2007... and we still eat out too much, almost never eat veggies (I do, salad and veggies every work day for lunch... my co-workers think I am part rabbit), don't exercise, and watch too much TV... but otherwise we're having the best times of our lives...
of course (you expected an entry without this?) I'd like to be falling in love too, but not long distance... Smash reminded me via text today that girls do not come to guys in this world and if I want love (of any sort) I have to go out and get it... I could play the "yeah, it was much much easier to find someone satisfying when I was Smash's age" and not be lying one bit, but I am not making excuses (see the sarcasm dripping?)...
of course my standards are too high, but then, they are not too high for me and that's what matters... and I'll find someone right for me just as soon as I start living up to them (yeah, that's telling me)...
and that's an update on life in RealTime™ (and you see that I am the dull boy amongst my roommates, so there)... but heck, I'm having fun being dull and that's what matters too...
hope your life is fun too J

It definitely all matters :)
Everything feels right in the world once again now that I'm here and peeking into your life once again. Love still lives and breathes and beats in hearts out there, and out here. Now I can sleep peacefully.
:)
Love, hugs, and smiles to you across the miles.

Hi Candoor, I sometimes look at other people having 'fun' and think, and often wonder what makes it fun - well whatever tickles your fancy, I guess
but hey if you can have fun being dull, you are guaranteed never to be bored.
I often enjoy looking at pixels on a screen - funny how little things can amuse us - lol!
heading backwards through time to catch up with comments, thank you dear serenity for sharing your heart and giving me the feeling of being appreciated and wanted and loved... that is the most precious gift of all...
watching others in pain is rarely any sort of fun, but most everything else can be some sort of fun for me, even if it's just fractionally fun... and when I find time, energy, and inspiration to babble on about it (or rhyme), then the act of expression is fun making virtually anything is fun...
the theory of fun will continue at another time :)
